This page last reviewed December 13th, 2013.

In August 2013, The Bulk Yard, Inc. paid $750.00 for violating air
quality regulations: $562.50 was paid to the Air Resources Board, which
provides funding for projects and research to improve California's air
quality; $187.50 was paid to the Peralta Colleges Foundation to fund
emission education classes conducted by participating California
community colleges, under the California Council for Diesel Education
and Technology (CCDET) program.

An investigation by the Air
Resources Board (ARB) showed that The Bulk Yard, Inc. failed to
properly self-inspect their diesel trucks to assure the trucks met
state smoke emission standards. ARB documented violations as they
related to the Periodic Smoke Inspection Program (PSIP). To settle the
case, The Bulk Yard, Inc. agreed to the $750.00 penalty and to comply
with PSIP and other ARB programs.
